Station Bay Lodges - The Retreat

This place is amazing and I can't wait to come back. We all loved it here and one day we will be back.

The internet didn't reach the room above the garage so it was a little annoying for the couple who stayed in it.

New, clean and beautiful property. Very responsive customer service when we had issues like the dishwasher not working properly. They replied to my messages within minutes, even on Sunday. I really appreciate this. Great job!

There were some neighbouring houses being built but there wasn’t that much noise and it didn’t bother us. I do wish there were shelves in the shower stalls so toiletries don’t have to be placed on the floor. Maybe just buy some plastic shelves and put them in the shower stalls. Other than that it was a great stay.

Great location and well appointed house with excellent amenities. Highly recommend.

Nice location. Looks like area will be very crowded soon. Many lots are open to build and houses are very close together. We enjoyed the house and had lots of space and high end items. 11/2hours to hike in my cook area.

Workers had music blaring early

Fantastic facilities. Cute little balcony with a view of the lake. Nice sunny location and close to everything. We left some clothes behind by accident, and the host couriered within 2 days to a place we were staying in Akaroa before we flew back to Australia. Outstanding customer service.

The only little thing was the construction works on 3 new homes nearby.

非常完美的住宿体验，房间宽敞整洁，厨具非常全,开车5分钟可到达中心区域，周围非常安静，强烈推荐。

The location and amenities were amazing. This is a true luxury experience!

Leaving:)

The house is equipped with high-quality facilities and beautifully decorated. Everything is well-designed and thoughtfully arranged. The scenery around the house is lovely, and we had a very comfortable stay.

The fourth lodge room is located outside the main house, which is a bit inconvenient.

不認識環境或者是空間還有內部的設備都相當完備，尤其是客廳讓我們感覺到非常的開闊很舒適。

有一間房間在車庫的樓上，所以比較不方便。

a comfortable and nice house, we really enjoyed the atmosphere and the surrounding views. we will come back again

The house is awesome and was the highlight of our trip. The photos reflect truly what you will find when you qre here. Walk to centre takes around 20 mins to city center but it will be a pleasant walk looking at lake Tekapo. The facilities of this house is superb, they offer Reidel glasses so you will be happy if you are wine lovers.

In this luxury house but they dont have wine cork opener and chopsticks, thats a bit pity.

The view & lots of bathrooms.

Need more bath, hand & floor towels and more cutleries.

Very close to all activities

House was very warm and very clean. Wonderful view. Layout perfect for grandparents, Dad and three boys. One towel per person for four nights.” dishwasher not working and only Two tea towels provided for family of 6. When paying premium price this really isn’t good enough.

Excellent property it was beautifully positioned and exceptionally clean and comfortable. Highly recommend it

Super clean house, nicely decorated and with a large common area. It is also within minutes of walk to the late (quieter part, which is away from the touristy, crowded areas). The team is also extremely helpful and always there to lend assistance. I love my stay and sincerely hope we can come back one day!

Nothing.

Luxury House and nice stay

The location was excellent with breathtaking views of the lake. Restaurants, cafes and supermarkets are within walking distance. It's a nice one hour walk to the Church of Good Shephard and back along Lake Tekapo, one of the most scenic strolls we have taken on the trip. It was a challenge for us to seek out a property around the area for 8 persons, 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and this property checked off all the boxes.

Everything was well thought through, the only amenity lacking was a hairdryer.

Brand new with heated flooring, heated towel rails and everything you could need

Modern, well maintained and stylish home. Very comfortable and warm for a mid-winter trip.

Nothing.

Very clean and new , also very stylish design

None

The space was super new and super high end. I couldn’t help to think that it was too good to be true to be able to stay in such beautiful unit. It was a quite cold timing, but the rooms and spaces are all well equipped with heaters, the whole stay was very comfortable!

Modern, clean, very comfortable sheets

It isn’t the closest to the lake, but honestly everything else about the house was absolutely wonderful.

Very comfortable and clean.

Location is a bit far off. No phone service.

What a fantastic property this is , the bed linen and beds were the highlight.

Location is very good and we came on December, hence a lot of Lupins just outside the property. The house is bright with lots of natural sun, facilities are very well maintained. I would definitely recommend!

Maybe hosts could provide more hair dryer? Considering it is 8 of us (6 are ladies) and we have to take turns using the hairdryer :)

Excellent house, modern, newly built, and nicely decorated. One of our favorite places we had stayed in our New Zealand trip. Had all the amenities we needed and great for our group. Own private beautiful lupin garden flowers behind the house. Nice view from the living room. Great location, very short walk to the lake and surrounding area.

Location overlooking lake, close to shops Luxury home with excellent facilities Extremely clean

Nothing to dislike about property We purposely booked this 4 bed room, 4 bathroom property (vs 3 bedroom one) to be able to spread out. On arrival we spent a good 20 minutes trying to figure out where the 4th room was, whether we were in the right house and whether to enquire about it or not. On enquiry, we found that there was a separate loft room and were given the key later when we said we would like to use 4th room. The assumption was that we would not require a 4th room. This made for a somewhat awkward start for us. Our expectation would be that the loft key is provided from the outset to honour the booking, and then it would be our choice if we used all rooms or not.

Beautiful. Everything was superb. coming from a hospitality background, I left the place as we found it! We loved it :) Would definitely recommend staying here! Just bring food & all you need for your stay, Tekapo village does not deliver, catered for tourists.

All Perfect, I have nothing bad to say, the experience was a amazing. The views, walk up to the pools, all at your fingertips. Tekapo township itself doesn't offer much for the local holiday makers, restaurants average. So stock up before you arrive and just enjoy the atmosphere this delightful holiday home offers!! We loved it!! xxxx

Fantastic new designed house. Lovely warm atmosphere, clean and welcoming. Loved the coffee ☕️ pods - thanks. Felt safe. One request - another couch or 2x comfort chairs to relax in would be ideal.

No dislikes,

Awesome place. Direct view to Lake Tekapo. Very bright with lots of natural lighting
